AMPHAR Posted October 20, 2020 Report Share Posted October 20, 2020 15 hours ago, volcom69 said: For some reason I thought he was a DE guess he is a DT He played both. His last season here, I thought he was effective as DT rusher in regards to destroying pass protection schemes. He can bull rush just about anybody. He just can't shed and corner to get the sack most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShulaSteakhouse Posted October 25, 2020 Report Share Posted October 25, 2020 Meanwhile Bates is playing his way out of Cincy. That is an alarming stat and grade, obviously well above anyone else, at least according to PFF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShulaSteakhouse Posted October 25, 2020 Report Share Posted October 25, 2020 Why put him on the trade block after demoting him, and decrease his value? How do they have anyone better at DE? Just more evidence Taylor is not equipped to handle the position he's in at this level. This is one of, if not thee, toughest jobs in the NFL. He has no history of success anywhere as a major contributor to anything. He can't attract staff or have any leverage with the incompetent Brown family. I feel sorry for the vets who are good on this team, what a miserable situation to be in for the last 4-5 seasons. Just awful, with no hope of it getting better any time soon. Burrow never looks happy, short answers, trying to play the part. It's sad. Just fire Taylor and Turner already, and promote someone as interim. The Jags suck and so do the Eagles, their only non-losses. This team could lose to the Jets. You can't just win 3 games out of the last 24 and say "oh we'll turn it around some day." I'm done with Taylor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the all-time franchise sack leaders and few talented DE's left, and they play these games with him. He deserves better. That they have Hunt ahead of him is stupid. These coaches suck so hard.

HoosierCat Posted October 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2020 After today I don’t see how they can let Spain leave town. We lost three guys against the Browns. They need him and whatever they can find on the scrap heap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

volcom69 Posted October 25, 2020 Report Share Posted October 25, 2020 You know maybe the Bengals did Carlos wrong, but what he is doing not any better. No need to air out this stupid crap, talk to the coaches behind close doors and get things settled. Whether or not he is here or not, no need to act like this he is a grown man!

There are no good guys here, just a big pile of crap. If the 90s were about anything (aside from the the FO) it’s that the most important thing is finding 53 guys who want to be here. Time for a divorce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea nobody seems to want to play for this guy, maybe the rookies or the guys who are new, but nobody who has been here wants to be here. Whether that’s because Taylor sucks, or they all just miss Marvin and company I don’t know, but seems like guys just don’t want to be here.

We’ve seen the move “The Nineties” and now we get “The Nineties, Part Deux”. I just hope it takes less than a decade and change to fix.

HoosierCat Posted October 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 Per Tyler Dragon at the Enquirer, Spain is basically a done deal as long as he passes COVID protocols and a physical. https://www.cincinnati.com/story/sports/nfl/bengals/2020/10/25/quinton-spain-former-buffalo-bills-guard-visit-cincinnati-bengals/6037183002/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That after a few years want out. It makes it hard to even be a fan of this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless things turn around, I can see Burrow pulling another "polite Palmer' trade demand in the last season of his contract here. Obviously that's several years away. Any ways, hijacking thread here, so will shut up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Should" be an upgrade in PP, which is all I care about, just keep Burrow from getting annihilated, they've done better with that the last 2 weeks, but now everyone's injured, kind of a nightmare scenario for him, I'm not even paying attention to the status of the injured players, as I just don't care that much, tough to even think about where they're at right now. They gotta start pulling Burrow out of games if they go south far enough. Just do it when there are no fans in the stands, he's gotten some good reps this year already. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
membengal Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 It's true guys, that's some savvy posting. Burrow definitely profiles as the kind of guy that ducks challenges and quits. Great insight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COB Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 We could be in a great position to attract a top level DC. With this quarterback, and this offense showing some real potential, the DC job is suddenly attractive. Imagine Wade Phillips or Zim (should Minny lose hold of their senses and fire him).
